Feature → Business Impact → Application: The CHP42B200X7 provides a 200 A main breaker with 84 circuits and 42 spaces, using copper bus. This supporting capacity translates to fewer panels, reduced installation time, and simplified future expansion in 120/240 V single-phase environments typical of commercial facilities and light industrial plants. Feature → PON (Plug On Neutral) simplifies wiring and reduces field terminations, accelerating installation and improving circuit reliability in control panels and distributed load centers. Feature → NEMA 1 metallic enclosure delivers indoor protection against dust and incidental contact, enabling safer, easier mounting in manufacturing rooms and data-center peripheral spaces. Feature → 25 kAIC interrupt rating enhances short-circuit protection for demanding startup kVA loads and elevator/snack-compact applications, reducing outage risk and service calls. Feature → Purchase notes and compatibility (X7 cover) support streamlined procurement and retrofit plans, minimizing downtime during upgrades in existing CH family installations. Warranty → Limited lifetime provides long-term asset protection and predictable maintenance budgeting.

FAQs
Install the CHP42B200X7 in a protected indoor location with a stable surface, following the NEMA 1 enclosure guidelines. Use the copper bus for reliable current transfer and choose conductors sized #2 AWG to 300 kcmil to match the 120/240 V single-phase, 84-circuit design. The PON feature simplifies neutral wiring, reducing field terminations and speeding the setup, while ensuring safe, code-compliant connections. Always verify clearance for 37 in depth and 14.31 in width to maintain service access and cooling.
This loadcenter is a 200 A main-breaker panel rated for 120/240 V single-phase operation. It accommodates 84 circuits across 42 spaces, uses copper bus, and has a 25 kAIC interrupt rating. The enclosure is NEMA 1 metallic, with an X7 cover and PON capability. The system supports three-wire configurations and accepts wire sizes from #2 AWG up to 300 kcmil, making it suitable for substantial indoor distribution needs.
Yes. The CHP42B200X7 carries UL 50 and UL 67 listings, confirming compliance for industrial power distribution enclosures and associated components. It is housed in a NEMA 1 metallic enclosure, which provides indoor protection. This combination supports safe operation in controlled environments and aligns with industry safety requirements for commercial and light-industrial installations.
The CHP42B200X7 excels in commercial buildings, data centers, and light-industrial facilities requiring a robust 200 A main breaker with substantial circuit capacity (84 circuits, 42 spaces). Its PON feature accelerates wiring, while the copper bus and CSR main breaker deliver reliable distribution and straightforward integration with existing CH family panels. Its indoor NEMA 1 enclosure makes it ideal for controlled environments where space efficiency and upgradeability matter.
The unit’s limited lifetime warranty supports long-term asset protection, reducing maintenance budgeting uncertainty. The copper bus and durable metallic enclosure minimize corrosion risk and downtime, improving reliability. The PON wiring simplification lowers labor costs during installation and future updates. For ROI, plan for future expansion within the 42-space, 84-circuit capacity and leverage CSR main breaker compatibility to adapt to evolving load profiles without replacing the panel.
